IN THE RAIN,

% 4.=T TO- - = -
There were large number OF family
parties in tho thropg and nearly. all these
were provided with well supplied lunch
baskets. When tie storm broke between
II and II o'clock these family groups
took refuge in the several halle, and there
protected FROM tho clements they MUNICH
ed their good thinsa and had almost as
jolly G time aa they could have had under
any other circumstances While the rain
lasted 1t was q steady pour-doEu that
thoroughly drenchel everything. The
denizens Of "Fakirs' Park" got a good
wet!ing, and this coupled With the fact
that they had been called on during the
morning for their privilege fees made
combination that made them awear in
about peven different languages. The
rain was accompanied by heavy thunder
and sharp lightning. ia, !
Previous to tho storm the people locked
through the various departments, finding
much to interest and amuss them. The
judges were at work In nearly every por-
ton Of tho grounds and they were watched
by G number The awards made as in
Dictated by the colored ribbons seemed to
meet with general approval. i
The live stock exhibits were generally
visited and the excellence Of the chow was
o subject OF general remark. The main
exposition hall was filled all day. Several
impromptu instrumental concerts were
given in that building which served rs an
addition to the numerous attractions
already grouped in that bazaar-like depart
mont. The ladies' wing was as usual tho
most frequented; there was a crush there
goodly part Of the time. e - .,'stts Il
Machinery hall is more than filed with
exhibits this year. The display made OF
tEreshers, mowers, respers and binders ia
far ahead OF anything ever before at.
tempted at this fair. In tho line Of
threshers alone there are nine different
makes, and almost as many farm and
traction engines. Every foot OF space ia
taken, barely room for passage ways beipg
left. Naturally this is ono OF the priuci.
pal objective pointh for tho farmers.
To enumerate sill the good things to be
found in all tho different departments is
m impossibility. Each is show in iteo!f
and must be visited and carefully Inspect.
cd to be fully appreciated. In the poultry
department, for example, thero is enough
to attract ones attention ior. considera-
bio length Of time. No one who vista
the fair will como away feeling that either
time or money has been wasted. Il 53s5
